Paula – I totally agree

Jennifer – sometimes I wonder if those spammers are just new to the medium and need to be taught manners or if they just have poor people skills. Sometimes we forget that although we may be doing business through a computer, those people skills are very important and sometimes more difficult to put across because or writing can be misinterpreted.

I recently found a local woman and blogger write a statement in a forum about one of our listings and mentioned it in twitter – she later found the twitter stream and got offended and felt we were talking about here behind her back. It’s not an easy one, that’s for sure.

The short sighted people are all about “spammin’ and jammin’” for short terms gains (through links, publicity, etc). And while that may have its place and usefulness, people with a bigger picture in mind realize that its really all about creating relationships with others – and it goes beyond just hitting up potential customers. Relationships are where its at.

Ines, you’re a dear. Thanks for those kind words. And, btw, it’s ok to leave Richard’s name out.
